Tequila Treats for the Big Game

January 30, 2015 by Greta Brinkley 1 Comment

The Big Game is always one of the most anticipated events of the year.  Even people that aren’t football fans are usually watching and attending parties?  Me?  I’m a hockey person, so I just go for the food and drinks.  Ain’t nothing wrong with that, especially when there’s tequila treats like these amazing Mexican Nachos or the superb tequila based cocktails.  Mmm mmm good.

Besides the obvious appeal of the food and drinks, and football I suppose, there’s another reason to make these tasty tequila treats for your football gathering.  Tequila is one of the top food trends for 2015.  Be ahead of the curve, and on trend.
